Well the Nicolls just had a great week. We went to a friend's lake house at Dewart Lake. The big thrill was catching turtles. Then we headed out to Shipshewana (Ship-she to the locals) and lived amongst the Amish. It was awesome. We saw tons of Amish families and their beautiful farms. Shipshewana was great - a real Amish town. They just come on in town just like we did. We had a great hotel w/ a pool and park and breakfast - a bonus for everyone. I love taking this annual "indiana" trip w/ the kids. I always fee proud that I can do it on my own. And we just have a fun time...no real responsibilities...just fun stuff to do. Even wathing a marathon of The Cosby Show at our hotel before bed was fun, Then we headed to my parents for the night. We hit our usual hot spot of Langels Pizza in downtown HIghland and then the park. On Friday, rob drove down and we left for Saugatuk, Michigan for the weekend - alone. AWESOME. The kids stayed at my parents and of course, loved that. They went to the Dunes and a restaurant that brings your meal to you on a train. They did crafts and played and had a blast. Meanwhile, rob and I loved our weekend - great food, fabulous bed and breakfast and just peace. We kayaked and went to the beach and took tons of walks and ate SO well...We came back to Griffith yesterday to pick up the kids and had a great meal - steaks, salad.
So now we are home..house is a mess, no food anywhere but I sitll feel pretty relaxed. Despite the ongoing real estate stressors and hectic schedule. I hope I can maintain this state of mind.
